St. Michael Combat Chaplet

This amazing Chaplet of St. Michael is a powerful way to call upon St. Michael the Archangel along with the Nine Choirs of Angels, especially in your acts of spiritual warfare. Sacred Scripture distinguishes nine such groupings: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominations, Powers, Virtues, Principalities, Archangels and Angels (Isa. 6:2; Gen. 3:24; Col. 1:16; Eph. 1:21; Rom. 8:38).

The history of this Chaplet goes back to a devout Servant of God, Antonia d’Astonac, who had a vision of St. Michael. He told Antonia to honor him by nine salutations to the nine Choirs of Angels. St. Michael promised that whoever would practice this devotion in his honor would have, when approaching Holy Communion, an escort of nine angels chosen from each of the nine Choirs. In addition, for those who would recite the Chaplet daily, he promised his continual assistance and that of all the holy angels during life, and after death deliverance from purgatory for themselves and their relations.

The design of the St. Michael Combat Chaplet follows the same as that of the original Combat Rosary designed by Fr. Richard Heilman, in that it is based on the 1916 WWI US Government military issue pull chain service rosary.

Father Heilman designed this Combat Chaplet to use the most powerful of sacramentals by adding the Miraculous Medal, Benedict Medal, which makes it a powerful spiritual assault weapon against evil forces.

For those who have been following our spiritual warfare campaign, you’ll recognize the St. Michael Medal on this Chaplet as the “Peace Through Strength Challenge Coin” with the beautiful images of St. Michael and Our Lady Queen of Peace, who is also invoked as “Virgin Most Powerful.”

Like the authentic Combat Rosary, this Combat Chaplet includes a “Combat Rosary Concealed Carry Card.” Also, a “how to” for praying the St. Michael Combat Chaplet.

This Combat Chaplet includes a business card size (for your wallet to have handy to give to a priest) “Exorcism & Blessing of the Medal of St. Benedict.”

This comes in the new pocket-sized Genuine Lambskin Leather Combat Pouch.

The authentic Combat Rosary and Combat Chaplets are among the strongest rosaries ever created, which includes double split ring connectors.
